Die Ovens for Better Extrusion

Product Image

Every extruder wants to get good product from the first push to the last in every run. The most usual reason why this doesn't always happen is that the first one or two billets are needed to bring the new die completely and uniformly to operating temperature. This results in scrap, lost production time, and the danger of unnecessary die correction. The basic problem is inconsistent die temperature. The traditional chest oven is an inefficient and often inaccurate way to heat dies.

In today's market, any extruder who is not using single-cell die ovens can no longer remain competitive. Castool's single-cell die oven brings each die uniformly to the calculated optimum operating temperature rapidly, accurately, economically and safely.

Castool is a global leader in Die Ovens

The advantage of considering the process of extrusion as a total system has already been well established and it is practiced by most world-class extruders. The ultimate extrusion system would therefore have all major components designed and produced to work together and be provided by a single supplier.

Castool is the only global supplier to the extrusion industry that can provide both a complete line of products, and trained experienced technicians to help the extruder to get maximum productivity from his system. This service is available wherever Castool products are sold.

Single sourcing and undivided responsibility distance a complete Castool tooling package from all others. A typical Castool single press tooling package includes all necessary spares.
